300 Sequel Nears Completion

Frank Miller has just finished a draft of the graphic novel follow-up to '300' (according to The Hollywood Reporter) - paving the way for the movie sequel.

With the 2-D version nearing completion, Warner Bros. and Legendary Pictures will already be mulling how to bring the comic to the big screen.

Kurt Johnstad - who penned the original - is rumoured to be back to write the script, although this hasn't been confirmed by the studio.

Annoyingly the trade paper doesn't know yet what the plot of Miller's follow-up will be, with the comic book legend facing some tough creative choices - Spoiler Alert - following the death of almost all the main characters at the end of '300'.

Zack Snyder - who directed the original - has been linked to the project and will surely be quizzed on the subject at Comic-Con this week, where he will be plugging the Watchmen DVD.
